There are two main types of paints - oil based paints and water based paints (distempers). Oil based paints dry more slowly than distempers but produce a harder finish that is more scratch and stain resistant, especially for high moisture areas like kitchens. They can also be used on top of existing oil paints. While oil paints provide durability, they also emit more volatile organic compounds and are less environmentally friendly than water based options. Additional classifications of paints include rust inhibiting paints, which prevent corrosion, and fire retardant paints, which reduce flame spread and are important for building safety.

1. TYPES OF PAINTS

2. CLASSIFICATION ON THE
BASIS OF BASE USED
Oil based paints
Distempers(water based)

3. OIL BASED PAINTS
Oil paints utilize a drying oil that oxidizes
and harden to form a tough elastic film
when exposed to a thin layer of air.

4. WHY I SHOULD USE OIL
BASED PAINTS ?
 Oil based paints dries much slower.(smoother
and glossier finish)
 Dries with a hard enamel
 Resistant to scratches ,fingerprints, staining.
 Can be applied over existing oil based paint.

5. WHERE SHOULD I USE OIL
BASED PAINTS?
 Interior or exterior
 Doors
 Cabinetry
 High moisture rooms.(kitchen and bathrooms)

6. •Paint made with oil based paint and soap.

7. DISTEMPERS
 Distempers are durable and
economical water based paints.
 Made of colouring agents , chalk ,
and lime.
 Distemper walls scratches easily and
are difficult to keep clean.
 Dispempers are known as breathing
paints.

8. ALKYD PAINTS
 Alkyd paints have binder an alkyd resin.such
as chemically modified soy or linseed oil.
 Also called
modern oil
Based paints.

9. BENEFITS
 Durable and resistant to wear and tear.
 Preferred for high traffic areas.
 In homes they can be used to paint children
play rooms.
 Resistant to humidity and moisture.

11. DRAWBACKS
 The main drawback is that they are not
environmental friendly.
 They omit volatile organic compounds.

12. CLASSIFICATION ON THE
BASIS OF PROPERTIES
 Rust inhibiting paints and primers
 Fire retardant

13. RUST INHIBITING PAINTS
 These are especially formulated with anti
corrosive pigments to prevent or reduce the
corrosion of metal surfaces.

Spanning a length

world first 3
dimensional self
anchored
suspension bridge.

15. FIRE RETARDANT PAINTS
 These are specially formulated with silicon and
polyvinyl chloride (pvc) or other substances to
reduce the flame spread.
 Unprotected steel can reach a temperature of
500c where it then can lose its strength and
can collapse.
 The annual fire occurences in US according to
hall 2001 exceed 10,000.(7 stories or taller)
